Title: Automatic or semi-automatic small arm
IPC: F41A29/00
Filed: 1976-08-26
Abstract: 1529606 Small arms HECKLER & KOCH GmbH 20 Aug 1976 [8 Oct 1975] 35427/76 Heading F3C In a small arm in which a weapon system, comprising a barrel, a breech, a magazine, a cartridge feed mechanism and a trigger mechanism, is located within a dust and watertight receiver designed as a stock (see UK Specification 1,446,664), the build up of leaking propellant gases to a point where accidental ignition thereof, perhaps by burning powder from the breech or barrel, would rupture the receiver is prevented by a repeatedly operable ignition device located within the receiver. The device deliberately ignites the gases before the danger level is reached and after several ignitions during a period of use the receiver becomes so depleted in oxygen that further explosion is impossible. During periods of non-use air does leak into the receiver but this is soon depleted by the ignition device during the next use. Battery driven, flint actuated, and piezoelectric ignition devices are contemplated. In the preferred embodiment, a barrel 2, a breech 3, and a magazine 4 are slidably located within a receiver 1, the receiver supporting a trigger mechanism 7, 8. The breech is operated by a gas piston 15 in communication with the barrel interior and a cartridge feed mechanism 5 actuable in response to the movement of the piston is provided. Projecting from the housing 7 of the trigger mechanism is a block 22 containing a compression bolt 23, a first ground bolt 24, a first piezoelectric crystal 25, a central electrode 26, a second crystal 27 and a second ground bolt 28. A chamber 29 open to the interior of the receiver is provided in the block and contains a pair of electrodes 30, 31 which define a spark gap and which are connected to the ground block and the central electrode respectively. As the gas piston moves backward after each shot so a bolt 17, 18 carried by it hits the compression bolt 23 to cause a spark discharge and perhaps an explosion of the gases in the receiver. The bolt 17, 18 is biased by a compression spring 19 so that the bolt also acts as a force limiter.

Abstract: 1326041 Photo-electric monitoring ENVIRONMENT ONE CORP 27 July 1970 [5 Aug 1969] 36258/70 Heading G1A In an arrangement for comparing a radiation affecting property of a sample with that of a reference, standard and reference signals are produced in a radiation responsive means by radiation from a single source passed alternately through the two and a further two signals are produced in a radiation responsive device exposed to radiation scattered substantially at right angles to the incident beam: A rotor 17. Fig.1, which may be rotated by oil flow or may be motor driven, has at least one pair of diametrically opposed channel apertures 22 through one of which the sample may flow and in the other of which the reference substance is located, and in rotation, the apertures are periodically inserted in the light path between a source 27 and photo-cells 34 and 44, to produce the transmissivity and scattering signals respectively. A reflector 36 also rotated into the light path generates pulses in a further photo-detector 39 which pulses are subsequently used for gating. The differences between sample and reference may be zeroed by a calibrator switch 67, Fig. 9 (not shown) when the sample is known to be in a desired condition, and subsequent changes in excess of a reference voltage are indicated at 61, after comparison with the reference voltage in a differential amplifier 60. Comparison of the reference attenuation signal with the reference voltage is used also to control the intensity of test source or the gain of the signal pre-amplifier 51 and 81, and a lamp 78 is connected to provide a visual alarm in the event of excessive error. In the circuit measuring the scattered light, the gain of the amplifier 86 is controlled by a servomotor 96 in response to the difference between the signal developed by light scattered by the reference substance and a reference voltage from 97 in order to compensate for attenuation of the light by the deteriorating sample substance. The apparatus may include a flow-meter, and the rotor may include a number of pairs of apertures including filters whereby tests may be made in different colour ranges. The reference substance may be a glass or a plastics material and it may occupy only the aperture space between sensors 44 and 34 so that oil in the remaining portion can effect systems compensation. The sample and reference substances, may be fixed and interrogated by an oscillating mirror arrangement.

Filed: 1974-08-20
Abstract: 1451154 Automatic gain control NCR CORP 20 Aug 1974 [7 Sept 1973] 36519/74 Heading H4R In an automatic gain control system for levelling the amplitude of regularly occurring input pulses, the pulses are applied to the input of a variable gain device 3, 4, 5, 6, and to the input of an A to D converter 8. A digital representation of pulse amplitude is applied, in parallel over leads 19, 20, 21 to the input of delay devices 9, 10, 11, which provide a delay on the digital representation equal to the successive pulse interval. The delay devices feed the digital representation to a decoder 12 to give an output on one of the lines 13 representative of the pulse amplitude which, via a logic circuit 14 activates an appropriate combination of the gain controlling devices 3, 4, 5, 6, to insert the appropriate gain or attenuation into the signal path at the time of arrival of the next succeeding pulse. The apparatus is used in a Loran radio navigation system where pulses from a pair of transmitters are received alternately and successive pulses from the same transmitter may be of similar amplitude, which is different from the amplitude of intervening pulses from a different transmitter. The arrangement allows the pulse signals in such a system to be brought to a common level of amplitude.
